VEGOILS-Market factors to watch April 24

The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and

other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil slid 1.2 percent on Wednesday, giving up some of this

week's gains due to pressure from improving weather in Southeast Asia and lower

prices for rival commodity soybean oil.

* U.S. corn futures advanced for a second straight session on Wednesday, adding

more than 1 percent on firm cash markets and as cooler and wetter weather in the

central United States stalled planting of the crop in the western corn

belt.

* Crude oil futures slipped on Wednesday after weekly data showed U.S. crude

inventories hit a record high, though Brent managed to settle above $109 on

support from the ongoing crisis in Ukraine.

MARKET NEWS

* Global equity markets rose on Tuesday, lifted by solid U.S. corporate earnings

and deal-making activity among European drugmakers, while the euro edged above

break-even.
